NEW YORK — (Scroll Down For Video) — Rapper Post Malone’s plane that took off from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey bound for London Tuesday blew two tires during takeoff.

In air traffic audio, the pilot of the Gulfstream Aerospace GLF-4 said he had blown at least one tire.

The flight was initially told to land at an airport in Massachusetts. The pilot was then instructed to execute an emergency landing at Stuart International Airport in New York.

The pilot was circling the area prior to the landing to burn jet fuel, officials said. The private Gulfstream jet was reportedly carrying approximately 3,700 gallons of fuel.

Dozens of first responders–including police, fire, EMS and airport personnel–flooded the scene near the runway. Fans and media also surrounded the fence line.

The jet later landed safely and everyone on-board appeared to be unharmed.
